We're About to Write Code That Wants Things, And We're Not Ready

Why I'm Finally Taking Federated Learning Seriously (And Why You Should Too)

I Got 47 Recruiter Messages Last Week, Here's What I Learned About My Own Resume

Three years into building production systems, I almost shipped a bug that would've been worse than any security vulnerability I've actually caught. It wasn't a SQL injection or a weak password hash, it was something quieter and more dangerous: a catch block that said `return tru...

Stop Building MCP Servers Like It's 2019

Two weeks ago, I spent an entire afternoon wrestling with deployment configs for an MCP server I was building for Claude. YAML files, Docker nonsense, manual testing against three different client APIs, the works. By the time I got it running in production, I'd burned through hour...
